I don't, I haven't bought a Macmillan ebook since they were in Webscriptions. That's not the point here. The point here is that of the two parties in the dispute (Amazon and Macmillan), Amazon is the one who is deliberately hurting people who are not directly involved in the dispute, purely for negotiating points.
I say let Macmillan offer $15 ebooks - if they are too expensive no one will buy them and the price will have to drop as ebook market share grows. At least in that case the price will be determined by market forces, not Amazon's tactics.
